Wineknut TN on point, white flower petals then tropical & stone fruits, enjoy the quince and chalky texture too, Vinous says powdered rocks. Solid terroir and balanced complexity for a 'little' Sicilia white, couldn't recall why I purchased at a tasting several years ago but makes a lot of sense now why I chose it. FM is almost always a reliable producer so no surprise at the QPR here.

Quite lean and acid driven with floral notes, popped this open as pre-dinner drink, but felt this would do much paired with food. Added some salumi and cheese on the side and improved dramatically.

Wine is clear pale yellow with green flecks. Wine contains a touch of gas. Nose is clean and clear. Nice stone and tropical fruits and white flowers. Could be sur lie with yeast present on the nose. Maybe almonds and a bit of crushed rock. Light barrel seasoning, if any. Palate was very fruity and confirmed nose. Medium mouthfeel with some toasted bread and minerals. Wine is young. Wine is dry with a good citrus lift and very pleasant medium length finish.
The list of varietals that it wasn't was pretty long...
Overall this was pretty tasty and matched well for me. Would drink again for sure.

Super frais et bien droit.
Des agrumes , du zeste, de la pomme verte
et du silex. Belle longueur et bonne acidité.
C`est salivant et délicieux!
